The Renew Your Mind Podcast

"That makes sense" can be a powerful way to understand yourself and others without adding judgment, shame, or excuses to the situation. Our beliefs, reactions, and patterns make sense when we consider the experiences, influences, and adaptations that shaped us. From that place of understanding, we can ask the more useful question: Now what do I want to do? This is mind renewal, emotional intelligence, and exercising your free will in your own mind.

Knowing your values is about more than having a list of words that sound good—it's about knowing what matters to you well enough to actually live by it. When your choices, boundaries, relationships, and everyday actions move away from your values, it's easy to slowly betray yourself and lose trust in your own decisions. Learn how to recognize when you're moving away from yourself and start having your own back with one choice, one conversation, one yes, one no at a time. Diana's six-week live class, Know Your Values: The Inner Compass You've Been Missing, goes deeper into turning your values into a practical way of living. Sign up at www.rympodcast.com

Your goals can tell you what you want, but your values tell you why you want it. When you connect with your values on a deeper level, you can uncover the why that gives you something to come back to when things get hard, motivation fades, or the path gets messy. Your values can fuel the choices, habits, relationships, and challenges that move you toward the life you want to live. Learn more about making your values practical in my six-week live class, Know Your Values: The Inner Compass You've Been Missing, at rympodcast.com.

Self-care isn't always about doing something fun or avoiding discomfort—it can be about making choices that support the life you actually want. When you know your values, taking care of yourself can become less about guilt and more about living in alignment with what matters to you. From rest and exercise to asking for help or doing something uncomfortable, self-care can look different depending on what you value. Diana's six-week class, Know Your Values: The Inner Compass You've Been Missing, begins October 4th and will help you identify your values and use them in everyday life.

Boundaries are much easier to maintain when you know what they are protecting. In this episode, Diana explains how connecting your boundaries to your values can help you follow through without getting stuck in guilt, fear, or worrying about someone else's reaction. You'll learn how to use your values to decide what boundaries you need and how you want to respond when they're crossed. This is another practical step toward learning to live according to what matters most to you.

Knowing your values can make decisions much clearer by giving you a guide for what matters most to you. Instead of making choices based on pressure, other people's expectations, or avoiding discomfort, you can consider which option lines up with the life you want to create. Your values won't guarantee an easy decision or a perfect outcome, but they can help you feel more confident in the choice you make. Diana's six-week values class begins the first Sunday in October and will help you identify your values and learn how to use them in everyday life.

Mind renewal isn't about forcing yourself to think positive thoughts; it's about learning to recognize what you're thinking, search for what is true, and find thoughts your brain can actually believe. Diana shares how her lifelong interest in truth connects to the work she teaches through mind renewal and coaching. The better you get at this skill, the more it changes how you approach your own life and gives you the ability to help other people find relief as well. If you want to learn these skills deeply and become a Renew Your Mind Life Coach, schedule your RYM Institute interview with Diana at rympodcast.com.

Learning coaching skills doesn't mean walking around analyzing everyone's thoughts or trying to coach your friends and family. Diana explains the difference between having a coaching mindset and actually stepping into the role of a coach, including what it means to hold space, guide someone without fixing them, and help people find their own wisdom. She also shares how learning these skills has changed the way she experiences her own life, creating more curiosity, peace, and intentionality.

What happens when you learn practical skills for renewing your mind—and then start using those skills everywhere? I'm talking with three women who became certified life coaches through the Renew Your Mind Institute, and their stories are all different, but they have one thing in common: the training changed them personally while giving them practical skills they now use in coaching, their careers, their relationships, and their businesses. They're also in three different seasons of life, which makes this conversation a fun look at what's possible when you learn how to coach yourself and help other people do the same.

Wanting more doesn't mean you're failing or that the work you've already done hasn't been enough—it means you're still growing and participating in your own life. This episode is about identifying what you want more of and finding one next step instead of waiting until you have the whole plan. You'll be reminded that change happens through small, doable steps and that you don't have to figure it all out on your own. If you're ready for your next step, the Renew Your Mind Group Coaching Experience can help you keep growing, learning, and creating more of the life you want.
